RAMP--Come.Into.Knowlegde.LP-(1977)-iMPG = vinyl
here is the cd reissue of this great album!
One of the greatest albums of all time -- a
masterpiece of moody soul, spacey vocals, and jazzy
vibes -- all produced by the legendary Roy Ayers! Ramp
take their name from the anagram Roy Ayers Musical
Productions -- and in a way, the group's the summation
of all the genius that Roy had been cooking up on his
own albums of the 70s -- served up at an even higher
level than before! The group boasts a unique two-
female vocal style -- sung together in a mode that had
been used on Roy's own albums, but never this fully --
all supported by some complex jazzy instrumentation,
very heavy on the vibes and keyboards! Nearly every
cut is fantastic -- and the album has a strange off-
kilter vibe that's totally amazing, and which has
captivated soul fans for years -- a blend of mellow
and upbeat, complicated and straightforward that's
totally great. Titles include the massive cut
"Daylight", sampled famously over the years, plus
"American Promise", "Come Into Knowledge", "I Just
Love You", and the band's great cover of "Everybody
Loves the Sunshine", done in a way that's strangely
both similar and different than Roy's own version!
if u like it buy it and show artists some love!
enjoy...
